Joie de Vivre jewelry

d a i s y 

The heroines of F. Scott Fitzgerald's stories and novels were bold and unapologetic but often sad and cynical. As a society beauty, Daisy of The Great Gatsby was no exception. She had style, beauty and riches, but what she lacked - what most of his characters lack - is a sense of happiness and peace with themselves and the world at large. Their life was one of compromise, often foregoing the one they loved for the one who could continue the lifestyle to which they were accustomed. But oh what style! His women glimmer and shine in sequined flapper gowns and flowing champagne as they dance on the edge of darkness. This 8" multi-strand bracelet is a natural partner to the quartz no. 14 gatsby necklace. Both shine with bold Art Deco style.

Cost: $56.00 USD

Length: bracelet - 8"

Materials:

  • smoky quartz beads
  • freshwater pearl beads
  • sterling silver beads
  • Japanese glass seedbeads
  • sterling silver infinity lobster clasp
  • SoftFlex moderate duty nylon-coated stainless steel cord (30 lb load test)

Care & cleaning: Beading cord may be kinked or broken through hard jerks or severed through prolonged exposure to rough or sharp edges; store bracelet flat when not in use to prevent stretching or kinking cord. Clean with warm soapy water and avoid chemical or abrasive cleaners.

The beading cord is strong, but given the number of stones and strands, it wouldn't be a good idea to let young children rub, bend and pull on the strands of the bracelet, particularly with the delicate Japanese glass between smoky quartz stones. As with all beaded jewelry: do not let young toddlers chew on it.

This bracelet was designed along with the quartz no. 14 gatsby necklace; however, the bracelet stands just fine on its own as a beautiful multi-strand bracelet of light and dark components. It has elegant style and can be dressed up with a cocktail dress or dressed down with a t-shirt and jeans.
